More on household notebooks and a couple recipes

As promised here is the place I used for all my papers I put in my house hold notebook. Organized Home it is a great resource for cleaning the clutter up and printables.

I also wanted to share to great recipes I tried last night. My girls love homemade pizza and normally I buy the pizza kit from the store because I hadn't found a good crust and sauce recipe that didn't take me all day just to make dinner. That is until now! Here are the links sauce and the crust.

Also I wanted the share this litte gradening thing I bought that is well worth the money. Its a Jiffy Pro Greenhouse. Now this thing amazed me I plant seeds for my garden instead of buy sets because its cheaper. I planted seeds on a Thrusday and by Saturday I had cucumbers poping up everywhere! Walmart sells them for 6 bucks and the thing I liked is you can buy replacement peat pellets and reuse the tray.

Household Notebooks

Household notebooks or planners are a great tool (when you use them) because with 2 kids my husbands loads always changing and everything else I juggle in a normal day it is very easy for me to miss place things forget what time and day appointments are set for and many other things.

I have used to keep just a notebook with lists of what I needed to get done for the day but lets face it with little hands that like to color and doddle all over every paper they come near sometimes my lists would get lost or so marked up you couldn't even read them. Thats when I decided to try out a household notebook so everything is one place I no longer have 5 notebooks I'm trying to keep track of and not having a clue where I put them last.

You might be wondering what I have in my Notebook well I have a section for grogerys/menu planning and price shopping, one for contacts including our favorite carry out places, to-do lists, daily schedule. For the time being thats it as it is a work in progress to figure out what else might be helpful.

There are several printable household notebook sheets on the web. I will be posting a list of the ones I used later this week, but you could use your favorite search engine and search for them as thats how I found the ones I used.

More to come on this as I get more sections done in my household notebook.

Here are some links to free printable pages for your household notebook.

Lots of changes!!!!

Well after being gone from the cyber world for some time I am back blogging but no longer will my posts be about my scrapping products. Now I will be sharing tips and tricks on getting some organization back into your life.

For me with 2 kids (5 and 3) and a husband who drives of the road plus working outside the home part time and going back to college things can get a little crazy! Ok well lets just face it...it can be total chaos around here. So I'm on a mission to get things back in shape around here and decided there might be other people struggling with the same things I have been lately.

So I hope you find something useful as I will be linking up the places that have helped me in completing this mission. Also I will be blogging about what worked for me and what has not.
